Contractor Benefits of ...it’s safe to go back underground…
Installation Time & Cost: The BlueDuct is the only underground duct system that was designed specifically for underground. Our system is fast and easy to install. Many contractors have commented that our system takes 1/4 to 1/2 the time of the PVC coated spiral or Fiberglass to install. We make sure that your installation is successful and problem free. The benefits to you are:

Direct Burial. With The BlueDuct, there is no need for: drain tile, pea gravel, field insulation, field vapor barrier, nor field concrete encasement (eliminating two separate concrete pours). Simply “direct bury” our duct and backfill with the dirt from the trench and tamp in place.
Boots. With The BlueDuct, there is no need for you to field manufacture your own corrosion resistant, encased in concrete boots. We provide the boots for you in a variety of shapes and sizes. Also, our boots won’t crush when the concrete is poured. We provide a finished duct system up to the finished floor.
Availablility. With The BlueDuct, the product needed for your project is in stock and ready to ship. We inventory several months worth of product. We know that our product is one of the first items needed on a job site and we help you come through in tight deadline situations. If the project changes, we can ship the material needed the next day.

Tools. To help make your job of installing even eas‐ier, we offer drilling jigs (first picture on the right) which are used to help drill new holes, ratchet straps (second picture on the right) used to help align & pull large ducts together and a circular saw (third picture on the right) with a custom flange guide to fit our duct flange.
CAD Drawings. We offer free CAD ser‐vices (AutoCAD or Revit) where we will draw the duct system with the engineers design in grey and our duct system in blue. This will aid in the construction coordination, engi‐neer acceptance, and your field team’s ability to assemble the sys‐tem. Here’s just one of many ex‐amples of this free service.
